[Bug 1705953] Re: Prefer snaps in "Editor's Picks"
I've uploaded this to ppa:ubuntu-desktop/gnome-software as 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.6~ppa1. We need to wait for the 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.6 SRU to complete before this can be uploaded to xenial. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705953 Title: Prefer snaps in "Editor's Picks" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1705953/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The version in 16.04 does not automatically remove the hardcoded values, so there will have to be a different solution. This version (3.20) also populates based on Ubuntu reviews, which is not present in 16.10 onwards. ** Description changed: [Impact] - The "Editor's Picks" section currently contains a mix of hard-coded values and snaps from the "featured" snap store section. As snaps are the newest and preferred method of installing things in Ubuntu it should show these before the other options. + The "Editor's Picks" section currently contains a mix of hard-coded values, values based on Ubuntu reviews and snaps from the "featured" snap store section.

Turns out the hardcoded values are only added if there is less than 5 popular apps. This is resolved by making sure the snap plugin runs before the hardcoded plugin. ** Description changed: [Impact] - The "Editor's Picks" section currently contains a mix of hard-coded values, values based on Ubuntu reviews and snaps from the "featured" snap store section.

[Bug 1705953] Re: Prefer snaps in "Editor's Picks"
The proposed solution is to sort the candidate editor's picks rather than only using snaps as this would otherwise be empty if snap support was not installed (e.g. manually uninstalled or an Ubuntu derivative using GNOME Software). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1705953 Title: Prefer snaps in "Editor's Picks" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1705953/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Snaps were added to this section in bug 1663097. We are planning on making a desktop specific featured snap store section [1]. This change would ideally be included with the snap prioritization change to ensure a good section of snaps is shown.
